Tour announcements steadily fill up our inbox. We are doing our best to keep you up-to-date on concert announcements in Wisconsin…but what about those bands whose tour buses pass through our state without stopping to taste the cheese or slam a PBR? With each tour announcement we hold our breath, click and then….*sigh* when we have to drive out of state to catch a number of great bands.

If you’ve had the privilege of seeing Jamie Lidell live, you’d understand what a letdown it is that he’s not playing a Wisconsin date on his recently announced tour. While Jim and Multiply do Lidell justice in capturing his strengths, nothing comes close to seeing the man live.

Chicago readers can catch Jamie Lidell this weekend at Lollapalooza and again on Wednesday, October 8th at the Metro.
